[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2435088, member: 451727"] My take is that it's about being aware but not to a point where you are afraid to do anything in case you catch it. As diabetics it's not that we are at any more at risk of catching it, it's that if we do catch it we [I]may [/I]suffer greater consequences because of diabetes (generally) affecting our metabolic system, ie more prone as a whole to suffering associated health issues from uncontrolled diabetes. But, what they don't ever seem to mention is that if (like a 'normal' person) we look after ourselves, eat healthily pertinent to our condition, keep our condition well controlled and so on then our risks reduce to that of anyone elses, lower in many cases given the average person's diet & general lifestyles. So, in answer to your question seeing as you asked, yes, I think you are taking it too far. [/QUOTE]
